Bremont is an award-winning British company producing beautifully engineered chronometers at our Headquarters in Henley on Thames, England.

Time began for Bremont in 2002, when we embarked on a journey to
make beautifully crafted pilot’s watches of exceptional quality.
Inspired by a love of flying historic aircraft, of watches and all
things mechanical, our timepieces had to be tested beyond the normal
call of duty. The watches in our core range are all COSC-certified and
we are one of the few companies offering a 3-year warranty on every
product. Immensely precise, reliable and durable, Bremont watches are
hand built in limited numbers.

Each is designed to appeal to those who share our passion for -
and appreciation of - the innovation and mastery behind a beautiful
mechanical wristwatch. We hope you enjoy the same satisfaction when you
try on a Bremont watch, as we do in creating one.

Bremont, The Beginnings

Life for Nick & Giles English changed significantly one clear day in March 1995. Nick was practicing for an air display with their father Euan. But the 1942 WWII Harvard aircraft they were flying was involved in an accident. Giles, waiting to take off for the next sortie was told that his father had been killed. His brother had broken over 30 bones and probably wouldn't make it.

Six months later, however, Nick was back in the air and being flown by Giles. But things would never be the same again. Life was too short to waste. The two brothers decided to pursue what they enjoyed most: a life crafting beautifully engineered mechanical devices.

When they weren't flying old aircraft, Nick & Giles had spent most of their childhood making and restoring things in the workshop of their gifted father - an ex-RAF pilot with a PHD in Aeronautical Engineering. They even helped him to build an aircraft they still fly to this day. Euan was also passionate about mechanical timepieces. He would often bring home an old clock from an auction for the brothers to try and get going again. The passion lives on in the classic curve of a Bremont timepiece.

The Name Bremont

In the late 1990s, Nick & Giles were flying across France in
their 1930's biplane. The weather was closing in. A rough-running engine
forced them to make an emergency landing. Keen to avoid the French
authorities, the brothers were more than happy to accept the gracious
help of the farmer whose field they had landed in. They stayed in his
home, the aircraft took cover in the barn. It transpired their host had
flown aircraft during the war, as well as being a gifted engineer.
Half-restored wall clocks lay everywhere, together with numerous engine
parts. The farmer still even wore his own father's wristwatch. The
brothers promised that his warm hospitality would never be forgotten.
His name? Antoine Bremont.
